It was hard for me__. Very, very bitter__ yet I did not have a fit of crying. I could not cry__ I was so hard, so bitter, so indignant! One hundred armed men, came up here to take two unarmed citizens! They left McMinnville at 6 P.M. the evening previous__ had lost their way__ travelled all night, & in the rain, and arrived here at daylight. They had written down the names of all the Cols. fine horses, and inquired of him where they were. I suppose his Union friends want the sweet Yanks to get all his property__ and perhaps they will be easy. I dont care for the property__ if they will only let him alone.__ but yet I shall remember them for this. George Stubblefield is said to be at the head of all this fine movement__ well, I want him to go his death on it now that he has the chance. May be the time may some day come when he wont have a chance! If that time comes I will use it, in remembrance of him & others of his like.__ We can get no news now except such as the enemy choose to give us__ to wit, that Vicksburg has fallen__ Charleston ditto__ the Yankee cavalry in Chattanooga,__ Lees army driven out of Penn. with loss of 33,000 etc. etc. which if we could believe might incline us to be gloomy indeed.__ This evening I went down to the Hotel, & got some china, etc.__ (the Yankees went off this morning laden with articles from this doomed hotel.) Ryan is now selling off many of the things__ the mountain people are the purchasers.__
